Dear body ...

Okay, I get it - you hate me. It's the only explaination for the fact that my complexion seems to have declared anarchy, and I look like I'm 14 all over again, without the teen angst that goes along with acne.

No Love Whatsoever,

Me.


Yes, I'm 32 years old - and I'm getting acne, again. Nevermind that I didn't have problems with this when I was a teenager - outside of the occasional PMS-related blemishes. Now, I'm getting "any damn time of the month" zits. Oh yeah - really exciting, there. I'm trying to take care of it on my own for the next few weeks, before I go running to a dermatologist, whining about my adult skin angst.

Anyways ... I'd post more pictures from the Photo Booth, but I'm still trying to recoup from the fact that one of my cheeks is looking kind of fucked up. :-/ So, yeah ... I will post pictures soon, though. :)

Another blessing of getting older :)

i've suddenly turned into a big fan of benzoyl peroxide again. i think i'm using clearasil maximum strength? it's a white cream w/ benzoyl peroxide and it's awesome. of course, i had to sit myself down and tell myself that it wasn't going to work unless i started using it at night too - and wash my face at night too, which i hate doing - but in about a week my acne was pretty much gone and it's yet to resurface. i'm actually quite proud of the consistency in which i've used it. it's been about a month and not even a breakout on my jawline, which was ground zero forever!

and... yeah, this is a bigger problem now than when i was in high school. friggen hormones.
